Dominican Chamber of Deputies approves mandatory morality and civics education

The Dominican Republic’s Chamber of Deputies approved a bill on Tuesday that would make Morality and Civics a mandatory subject in the country’s pre‑university education system.

The bill was passed in its second reading by the Chamber, which is the lower house of the Dominican Congress. The legislation requires that all schools offering pre‑university education incorporate courses on morality and civics into their curricula.

According to the official statement, the measure aims to strengthen civic values and ethical conduct among students across the nation. The bill will be sent to the Senate for further consideration before it can become law.

There were no details released about the specific content of the proposed courses or the timeline for implementation.
